I like everything! Location, kitchen is well stocked, love their colours and paintings throughout but especially in my room. Natalia is super helpful as are the rest of the staff. Often hard to find a place that doesn't reek of strong cleaning products. This place ticks all the boxes!

Loved the artwork on the property, friendly staff checked me in and made me feel welcome in Catania right away, it was my first time visiting so they recommended me some good things to do such as visit mount Etna.

It is a nice spot, especially traveling alone. Very inexpensive dormitory accommodations. Staff and guests were friendly and relaxed, and common areas are pleasant. The area around is excellent, near a cooperative bookstore and wine bar and the excellent museum at Castillo Ursino. Very congenial—not much privacy and no frills lodgings, but a good experience.
